Mesothelioma and Asbestos in Indiana

Although mesothelioma was identified as a unique form of asbestos-related cancer since 1960, it was not until 1980 that the disease was brought to public attention. It was that year that the late actor Steve McQueen – an Indiana native – was diagnosed with the disease, from which he died less than a year later.

McQueen was a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps, and spent a substantial amount of time aboard naval transports. Before that, he was employed as a merchant seaman; later on, participating in motor sports, he wore asbestos suits.

Asbestos Exposure in Indiana

Indiana has no naturally-occurring asbestos deposits. Most asbestos exposure in the state was among employees at power generation plants, oil refineries and steel mills, where asbestos insulation was commonly used as a flame retardant, particularly in those plants fired by fossil fuels. Indiana corporations that have been named defendants in asbestos lawsuits filed by a mesothelioma lawyer include U.S. Steel and Countrymark Cooperative LLP (the state's only U.S.- owned oil refinery).

In addition, there are many older buildings throughout the state that have undergone renovation or demolition which contained significant amounts of asbestos-containing materials. If you have worked at these sites and are having health issues, you should seek medical attention.

Mesothelioma Statistics in Indiana

Most industrial exposure to asbestos was in the steel mills. Most deaths attributable to asbestos between 1979 and 2000 were concentrated in and around the city of Gary, which was once home to a thriving steel industry; 77% of these were from mesothelioma. As is the case nationwide, mesothelioma victims outnumber those with asbestosis in the urban areas of the state; the latter disease is more common in rural regions.

If you worked at any of these companies and/or jobsites in Indiana, there is a possibility that you may have been exposed to harmful asbestos which is known to cause mesothelioma.
